War in Ukraine

Russia’s electronic warfare systems—once seen as a key advantage on the battlefield—are falling fast. Ukraine has launched a string of successful strikes that are dismantling Russia’s prized EW arsenal. Which systems have been taken out, and how were they destroyed?

Russia’s full-scale war in Ukraine has been ongoing for more than three years. These hostilities have become a significant source of knowledge for military theorists and analysts. Here are ten examples of how three years of full-scale war reshaped global military tactics and strategy.

The city of Irpin, just outside Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv, was one of the first major targets of Russia’s full-scale invasion—and for a month, it stood as a battleground under occupation.

In the darkness, the elite “Vampires” of Ukraine’s 25th Airborne Brigade unleash precision strikes from the skies. Armed with high-tech drones and a relentless resolve, they silently stalk the Russian forces, delivering deadly blows without mercy. This is the story of their deadly nightly operations.

A news audit found that a pro-Kremlin network has deliberately infiltrated leading artificial intelligence chatbots with false narratives about Ukraine. This means that Russian AI-generated propaganda and falsehoods are flooding the information space, another element of Russia’s expanding information operations.  

Russia has recently intensified its drone attacks, launching around 100 Shahed-type suicide drones at Ukraine daily — including inert “dummy drones” designed to overwhelm and deplete air defense systems.
